Fred's, (Used to be Barb's), Board

Several Canadian skaters are entered in the Senior Dance plus various Junior and Advanced Novice disciplines. I presume this is in an effort to acquire TES minimum scores, to show fitness after injury, or to determine participation at Junior Worlds.

Will you look at all those up and coming Canadian talents. What an experience they will have. Good luck to them all. Will there be some coverage to be glimpsed at all, Elizabeth?

I don't have any information on a live stream yet; I don't expect any TV coverage, of course.

I've been told that there will be a livestream here: https://vimeo.com/event/20903

I believe that Oberstdorf is 6 hours ahead of EST or 8 hours ahead of MST.

Skate Canada article on the CDN team of 32 skaters: https://skatecanada.ca/2020/02/canadian ... rian-open/

Competition began today - one of our CDN girls is in 2nd place after the SP in her Advanced Novice group; two of the other CDN girls are in first and 2nd place after the SP in the other Advanced Novice group.

Two CDN skaters placed 3rd & 4th in the Advanced Novice Boys SP: http://www.deu-event.de/results/BO2020/SEG021.HTM

It appears that the start orders for the FS are based on reverse order of placement from the SP.

Excellent results for the 4 CDN girls in Advanced Novice Groups I and II - 4 CDNs and 4 medals, including a "sweep" in Group II and a silver in Group I!!!! Congratulations!!

Another Canadian medal in Advanced Novice Boys and very good results after the SP in both groups of Junior Ladies - well done Team Canada!

Yes indeed, well done, especially for these young skaters probably participating in an international competition for the first time.

The future in Canadian Women's skating seems secure. It's nice to know.

The Junior Ladies I & II events are complete and have produced two more gold medals for CDN ladies

After the Junior Pairs SP the two CDN pairs are in the first and second positions!

Today's final event is the SP for the Junior Men which includes Joseph Phan and Stephen Gogolev. Their group is warming up now - the live stream is here: https://vimeo.com/eislaufunion

Stephen was all smiles when his score came up



After the next (and final) skater was scored, Stephen remained in first after the SP

The fourth day of competition in Oberstdorf has started well for the Canadian team - a gold and silver in Junior Pairs

Next up was the Junior Men and another set of gold and silver medals for Canada!!

Love both of Stephen's program. With his "new" height his artistic presentation comes so much more into play. I am so pleased Canada has this great group of junior and even novice skaters coming up, no worries for us fans.

Although there are still some medal opportunities before the competition ends, Skate Canada has put out an article on the "medal bonanza" to date: https://skatecanada.ca/2020/02/medal-bo ... rian-open/

There were more CDN medals today in Advanced Novice Dance and in Junior ice dance - those below relate to Junior Worlds assignments:




Natalie & Bruce, who competed at the Youth Olympic Games were already assigned to Jr. Worlds but 2 other spots are still TBD.

A total of 16 medals (six gold, five silver and five bronze) in three age categories! Well done, team
